"All non-static non-private non-template member functions are virtual. This may sound inefficient, but since the D compiler knows all of the class hierarchy when generating code, all functions that are not overridden can be optimized to be non-virtual."

This is so much theoretical that I think this should be removed from the D docs. And to be put back when one DMD compiler is able to do this. Otherwise it's just false advertising :-)

Is this even possible without LTO/WPO? Extending a class defined in a library you link in (and for which codegen already happened) is certainly possible…
